Here is a list, by state, of the American small-batch,craft chocolate makers who make chocolate from bean-to-bar.

A smallish campaign with a homemade list would not be likely to yield much of a result. To achieve anything worthwhile, a much more aggressive effort is needed. Then, the age-old value analysis applies: projected earnings = margin on total projected sales - cost of campaign.
